A spellbinding mystery based in The Cotswolds, England and Paris
When Claudette Bourvil is recruited to the French Resistance she has no idea what will happen to her. The last thing she expects is that she will be sent to work in the heart of Paris to spy on senior Nazi officers.
Claudette learns how to survive in a city ravaged by war, where the citizens are murdered on the whim of the occupying force. Constantly under threat of discovery and in danger of losing her life Claudette risks everything when she falls in love with the wrong man, the worst kind of man.
Over seventy years later, in rural Oxfordshire, Connie Webber discovers seven letters linked to a famous playwright, Freddy March. The letters will eventually lead her to Paris where she discovers the horrific reason behind Freddy’s life long depression. As his mother’s story unfolds Connie uncovers a dark past that the city has tried to erase from history.

I loved it
The story telling in the book is so gripping it draws the reader in and it becomes very easy to relate to the characters and feel the emotion of their situations.
It is a book you are desperate to finish to find out the answers, but at the same time wish it would go on forever.
I loved it.
